no rear sway bar, with a speedway front hollow bar set full stiff and the car was so so on firmness. worked well with the hoosiers and kumo 710s.

Running a gutted thermostat is a no no. From my knowledge regardless of use of the car it is necessary.





Just pulling the thermostat is a big no-no on a rotary(or most things really), but gutting it isnt bad for a race car.

soo i just ended up getting a custom radiator made. its a thick 3 row with side tanks and a "U" flow. total of $380!! should solve the cooling issue along with some minor ducting. heres some pics of it mounted along with the new engine installed.
